If your deck already has a stain or oil, don't worry. Check if your surface is ready by sprinkling water onto your deck:
If the water absorbs into the timber - you're good to go!
If the water beads, you will need to let your deck further weather, or if you don't want to wait, you can either sand or strip your deck back to bare timber.

How to apply Traditional Timber Oil:
Before you get started, you need to ensure the following:
You have followed our preparation guide
Your timber is completely dry before coating.
You've stirred your Traditional Timber Oil thoroughly before starting (and during!), avoiding introducing any bubbles!
If you are coating a large space and need more than one Traditional Timber Oil, you’ve mixed both cans together in a large container.
Ok, let's get started:
Work 3-4 boards at a time along the grain and apply one coat of Traditional Timber Oil using a brush, roller, spray, or Feast Watson Floor Applicator.
Using a roller or spray? Make sure to back brush the coating. This way you will ensure even penetration.
Note: Ensure your edges and end grain are fully coated!
Let the oil penetrate into your timber for 30-60 minutes, and then wipe off any excess product with a dry applicator or cloth before your timber becomes tacky.
Let your timber dry for another 60 minutes.
Apply a second coat. After 30-60 minutes, wipe off any excess product.
Note: Wiping off the excess product is an important step to gaining that beautiful finish!
If you want a longer-lasting finish, apply a third coat, and follow the previous steps.
You can start walking on your beautiful new deck after 18 hours of drying time.
